What User likes about The Smuggler's Rest:
we celebrated our high-time anniversary. there was a little confusion about the open table reservation, but it was quickly and politely resolved. each of us ordered another dish of ribs to healed and all enjoyed our meal. our services were attentive, but not intrusive. wonderful evening. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about The Smuggler's Rest:
The setting is spectacular (on the top of a cliff overlooking the sea), the staff were brilliant but sadly the food quality was the wrong side of average. It wont stop us from visiting again, fingers crossed it was a one off. View all feedback.

It was too busy for them to handle being Mother’s Day had to wait too long between courses and they ran out of spoons and jugs

Nestled atop a cliff with stunning ocean views, this restaurant offers a picturesque setting for any dining occasion. While the ambiance and attentive staff earn praise, the food quality leaves much to be desired. Patrons experienced inconsistencies, from cold sweet potato fries to overcooked chips and lukewarm fish sandwiches. Despite the management's potential to capitalize on the location's allure, the dining experience has been marred by service issues and booking confusion. While some guests enjoyed their meals and acknowledged the staff's efforts, a collective sentiment suggests that improvements in food preparation and customer service are essential for a return visit.

I'm unsure if I would suggest this restaurant. The atmosphere is pleasant and cozy, but the food was lackluster.
